#107534, "RE: What reliability can I expect with boost?"
In response to In response to 2


          

I first boosted my car when I had around 35K miles on the stock motor. I ran it at 12-13psi of boost with an inadequate fuel setup (it ran lean the entire time) and I still got 25K miles out of it before I had some internal damage.

I rebuilt the motor with forged low compression pistons and forged rods, like many of us do, and have been running it at 16psi now for around 7K miles. Car runs great and I have not run into any issues.

Many of us on this site have had success with the 420A motor and can attest to its overall strength.
